Abstract

The goal in the present work is to show an overview of the trend that has been followed in the use of technological capacities in the Queretaro state. To achieve this objective, the selection of the variables to be included in the proposed analysis was performed as a first step. Subsequently, the various time series were compiled for statistical analysis so as to be able to show the general picture in numerical terms, as a third step was the descriptive statistics of these indicators or variables and finally the correlation analysis is presented. Based on the analysis of the variables it was found that the greatest variation in the data was the foreign direct investment in the state. On the other hand, the indicator that less variation suffered was the literacy rate. In terms of technological capabilities we can say that in the Queretaro state it is in a positive level.
